Judge Macarthur Refuses to AccePe
Bail for walker.


This morning, in the Criminal Court, Judge
Macarthur, Geo. n. walker, indicted yesterday by
the grand Jury for the murder OF John C. Miller on
the sth OF December last, was present Messrs. W.
A. Cook Daniel f. Cahiu and F. Beall appeared for
him, ana made an application for his admission 10
bail. He has been at large on 10000 bail, but
was yesterday indicted by the grand jury.
The accused was formally arraigned and pleaded
not guilty.
Mr.. Cahill said they were prepared TO give bail
In any amount, and they held that murder Was
oailaole; that the question was In The discretion
OF the court. He cited three cases In the present
case, he said, they were ready for a trial In ~
hours II possible. They had nothing TO fear and
the sooner they had a trial the better.
Mr. Worthington objected 10 the taking OF bail.
He had invariably since he has been I'm the office
refused 10 consent TO bail In cases or murder, and
he denied that the court could take bail after the
Indictment Is found. He was ready TO set the case
for trial on Wednesday next.
After further argument the court said that when
the application was first made for BAH the statute
appned, and IL was proper case for him 90 take
bail In. The case was now quite different: it had
been looked into by the grand Jury, who had given
IL quite an extended examination. IL may be
questioned III the statute has any application 1t
this stage or the proceedngs for IL would necessi
tate the court 10 Inquire into the circumstances.
and that is quite impossible The examination by
the coroner was not the testimony on which the
Indictment was based, and that taken by the
grand jury Is not available. There was nothing
now before the court which would warrant the
admission or the defendant to bail. and he would
have TO deny the application unless there was
something I'm the nature of an admission or waiver
from the government or some tangible circum-
stance presented 10 the court.
Mr.. Cahill asked If this would preclude an appl-
cation on habeas corpus.
The court said he would be slow 20 act.
The question OF fixing the day for trial was then
considered, and, after some discussion, "Wednesday
next was fixed as the day.
